y-luk-o is a project inspired by industrial, ebm and nu-metal. it was formed during november of 2000 in london by yluko and leonardo von leibnitz after successful cooperation on a song which was originally slated to be a one-shot. y-luk-o is progressive and innovative electronic music distinguished by the driving beats of intensively edited synth-drums, and emotional vocals sung by both yluko and leo in their while recognizably separate, similarly charismatic styles. the contrast forged between classical instrumentation and elements of an electronic nature in their songs generates a dense atmosphere of emotional purity, which is often suddenly shattered by cutting breaks, surprising changes of pace, and abrupt endings. this combination crashes through the monotony of modern dance floor hits like a sledgehammer vs a corporate jukebox. y-luk-o is a new style of modern electronic music geared for the 21st century! y-luk-o is about to define a new way of music and emotion within industrial-nu-metal! y-luk-o is: yluko: lead-singer, guitarist and programmer, leo: sound-design, composition, backing vocals and production. for live-shows they are supported by slin tompson (ex-livemusician at psyche), who delivers irresistible e-drums, which give additional drive and groove and simon rober (ex-emotional violence), who will play the guitars to add even more power and emotion to the live appearances.
